Thanks. You are doing exactly what I am contemplating doing - replacing ancient doorbell ringer and transformer with newer units with an eye toward installing video doorbell switches in the future. Looking forward to your video showing installing Ring camera switches.
What am I missing? I see the two wires from the transformer being connected to the Trans and Front terminals of the chime unit. Where are the wires from the pushbutton doorbell and how do they enter the circuit? Where does one wire from the pushbutton attach to the transformer and the other to the chime unit? Thanks.
Today my electrician was trying to install it. However, I would like also to use my old ring bell from 20 century. Ring change the setting to not allow those old ring bells work. I am going in this moment to buy a chime devices, because my wife is going to be crazy if I didn't fix it.
My vid doorbell stopped working, borrowed my neighbor's multimeter, and only getting 1 volt out of the transformer so the thing is shot. My concern is that I don't know which breaker will cut the power to the transformer, and if it's only showing a volt or less, how am I even going to know if I found the right breaker?
You could turn off all the breakers but the best advice is to get a professional. Just want to mention that my video is for tutorial purposes only and I’m not liable for anything that happens, I’m not a licensed electrician and working with power is extremely dangerous. So best thing to do is to get a professional.
@landpet I did. Spoke to several techs. They said they had no idea. Told me that I needed to get an electrician. I'm like umm, it's your product you should know what volts is required for your product. Not an electrician. I regretted getting g ADT. Should've stuck with our previous alarm company.
I found a fixture with black going to the top of the switch and white at the bottom this was after the fixture was installed it tripped the breaker .i just moved the white wire to a black where the wires were coming into the fixture then wrapped black electrical tape so the wire is marked black that way someone will have a clue next time

Nice video, did you turn off power to the whole home or just that specific breaker?
Just the breaker in my case and verified it was off

Does the chime work with the ring doorbell?
Yes it does
Is this transformer volt compatible for ADT pulse doorbell?
You would need to check the power requirements for ADT pulse doorbell.

are you screwing into a cement wall? Why are you using the screw reinforcement if you aren't?
Who can answer if 24V one is better than a 18V or 16V one.
Thanks man!
No problem!
Where can I found the transformer?
There should be a link in the description section of the video, I got it from Amazon
I've watched at least five doorbell videos. Why does no one think to ring the doorbell a time or two so we can hear it before ordering online?
My ring doorbell video is a separate video. It does make the chime ring.
@@landpet Thanks.

I've seen that before as well, not sure why people do that.
